To mix feed or not?

The struggle is real due to he might not been getting enough milk from me. He is a good latcher but frequently cries as I've been having difficulty in positioning him due to my CS operation stitches. We consulted his pedia and she recommended Similac if ever that we will pursue mixed feeding. Thoughts? πŸ˜…#advicepls #1stimemom #firstbaby #theasianparentph

To mix feed or not?

Hi! I was emergency CS. During first week iyakin baby ko after maglatch for almost an hour always. Upon googling, nalaman ko yung amount na appropriate for a week old baby. What i did is nag pump na lang ako para malaman ko kung enough ba naiinom ni baby. During 2nd week kasi pwede na 1.5oz to 2 oz si baby per feed. Magmula magpump ako para ibottle feed na si baby, dun ko na nakita na nabubusog sya kasi nakakatulog agad right after maubos yung 2 oz. Hindi na rin umiyak. Nakakalakas kasi yung pagppump but you need to stick to the schedule for pumping talaga. 8 month old na baby ko ngayon, direct latch na kami ngayon, di na ko nagppump kasi stay at home lang ako and napagod na rin ako kakapump at hugas ng bote. Kaya mo yan, dont give up :)
